He bought the car for 500 bucks
|
It took every cent he had
|
With a cross taped to the dash for luck
|
Never wanted anything so bad
|
Nobody knew he left town that day
|
Cause they never know he was there
|
The funny looking kid with the cheap tattoos
|
And grease stuck in his hair
|
|
But he just said
|
That's the way it goes
|
When you're around nobody knows
|
And when your gone life goes on
|
With a loveless heart and a tank full of gas
|
He headed out onto the overpass
|
Gonna take that road wherever it goes
|
|
That was 4 or 5 years ago
|
And that old car's running still
|
He thinks about going back sometimes
|
But he knows that he never will
|
He's been playing with fire and he's been burned
|
And it's got him feeling low
|
He just laughs and turns the radio on
|
Cause that's the way it goes
|
|
But he just said
|
That's the way it goes
|
When you're around nobody knows
|
And when your gone life goes on
|
With a loveless heart and a tank full of gas
|
He headed out onto the overpass
|
Gonna take that road wherever it goes
|
|
He pulled into town around 9 o'clock
|
And that's when that old car died
|
On an empty street with no cars in sight
|
He just pushed it to the side
|
He looked up and saw that girl drive by
|
He just turned and watched her go
|
She was the best damn girl he'd ever seen
|
He just laughed cause that's the way it goes
|
|
But he just said
|
That's the way it goes
|
When you're around nobody knows
|
And when your gone life goes on
|
With a loveless heart and a tank full of gas
|
He headed out onto the overpass
|
Gonna take that road wherever it goes
|
